...first Cambridge performance of the Pi Eta play was given in the theatre of the club-house last night. The play, though rather too long, went off very smoothly. J. M. Ross '01 took the part of Triptolemus B. Arnstormer, the half-cracked actor, with great skill. His acting and the songs sung by P. L. Fish '01 were the best features of the evening. The last performance of the play will be given Thursday evening at the club theatre...
...exceedingly funny, especially in the third act, and has a well-connected plot. In the first act, which depicts the departure of Leif Ericsson from Norway, the author has followed a more serious vein. The act is brightened, however, by a catchy "Fisherman's Song," sung by J. M. Ross '01, who plays the part of Olaf, the innkeeper. One feature of the second act is the appearance of some twenty Indian warriors. The third act is filled with entertaining songs and dances. The opening chorus sung by twelve policemen, the Duke of Dedbroke's song, the "American Heiress...
...again in the third act as Professor Hasafad, the enthusiastic discoverer of Leif Ericsson. C. C. Brayton '01 makes a laughable figure in this act as a Chicago wheat king of the "nouveau riche" type. P. L. Fish '01, as the insipid, affected Duke of Dedbroke, and J. M. Ross '01, as the threadbare actor, are worthy of commendation. The leading girls' parts are taken by J. S. Chipman '01 and W. H. Taylor '01. The former makes a petite and graceful heroine. Taylor plays Nodo Woodmarry, the gay, sprightly chorus girl...
